We are here for you

Kise Ryota, get off of me!

* Your P.O.V. *

" That stupid arrogant prince! I hate you, Akashi Seijuro! Just watch, I'll do something about this engagement so that even you will be speechless! " I cursed him as I muttered, biting my nail.
" I hate to break it to you, (f/n)-chan, but you've been muttering to yourself for a while now, and it's creepy! Look at the scary look you have on your face! " Takao-san burst out laughing, seeing me in my bad mood.
" Shut up, Takao-san. I was really ticked off by that cocky prince's attitude! I'll make sure to return that attitude to him one day.... " I growled.
" Oh, it's you, (f/n). How did the meeting go? " Shin-chan approached me and Takao-san, pushing up his glasses to the bridge of his nose.
" You know, it went pretty smoothly, but even right now I'm still feeling pretty pissed off by that man. " I curled my palm into a fist.
" Well, get ready to be pissed more today, nanodayo. He is coming, nanodayo. " Shin-chan had a meaningful stare on his face.
" He? As in- " I was cut by a loud scream across the hall.
" (F/N)-CCHI!!!!! " A blond-haired man shouted as he glomped me.
" Whoa! Kise! Pipe down will ya'? This is a mansion, not a forest! Stop screaming out of the blue! " Takao-san shouted.
" But, it's been a while since I last saw (f/n)-cchi-ssu
... " Crocodile tears fell from his face.
" Let go of (f/n), Kise. Go die, nanodayo, " Shin-chan growled as he tried to separate Ryo-chan from me.
" Let me hug her just a bit more! " He snuggled on top of my head.
" ...... Kise Ryota, get off of my head! You're heavy, you know! " I kicked him on his knee.
" (f-f/n)-cchi... You're becoming more like Kasamatsu-san now... " He cried some more crocodile tears As he clutched his knee.
" Like I care. You are the one who keeps hugging me every time we meet! Stop harrassing me for once, will you? " I lifted an eyebrow.
" And state your business here, nanodayo. You usually don't come here without a reason, nanodayo. " Shin-chan glared at the blond male.

This blond-haired man is Kise Ryota, my cousin. I usually call him Ryo-kun, and he's the same age as I am. We are distant relatives, but actually, he's not blood-related to me at all. He was adopted, he lost his parents when he was merely three years old, and was raised by my distant uncle. The first time I met him was when we were five years old, and I was the first person to gain his trust, before he opened up to my uncle's family. As years passed by, somehow, he became attached to me, and always hugs me whenever we meet. He even ended up receiving a few punches from Shin-chan when they first met because he hugged me in front of him.

" Well, you know, Midorimacchi, I came here to take (f/n)-cchi out to the city today! Father has some business to do with uncle, so I'm currently free for the time being. Hey, (f/n)-cchi, wanna go to the city-ssu? " He brightly offered as I furiously nodded.
" No, (f/n). You are not going anywhere, especially with him being your escort, nanodayo. " Shin-chan ordered as he held the collar of my kimono.
" It'll be fine-ssu! Besides, what could go wrong if (f/n)-cchi has me to protect her? " He cluelessly asked.
" Your looks matters, Ryo-kun you idiot. Remember that you were surrounded by girls when you went out to town with a fancy attire? Not to mention your face, " I rolled my eyes.
" Um, (f/n)-chan, you should also have some self-realization, you know. For one time, I remember following you to the city, and you were also surrounded by girls, who thought you were a boy. " Takao-san cleared his throat.
" The two of you have some attracting aura around you, nanodayo. That's why many people admire you, but not Kise. They're just worshipping him as a pretty-boy, nanodayo. " Shin-chan's sharp tongue causes Ryo-kun to cry some more crocodile tears.
" Ouch, Midorimacchi, it hurt! " He fake-cried.
" Die, Kise. " Shin-chan muttered.
" Midorimacchi! You're so cruel-ssu! " Ryo-kun's face was pushed away by Shin-chan's palm.
" Drop the act, Ryo-kun. You're overreacting. " I sighed, mentally pitying myself for having such an overreactive cousin.
" But then again, let's gt to the point, shall we? Yoy said that you came here to pick me up? I'll get dressed now, I also need to check up on some people that I treated last time. After all, I am a doctor. " I rushed into my room as I changed my disguise clothes and tied my hair up. A while later, I ran back to the spot where the three were at earlier.
" There, I'm ready. Let's go, Ryo-kun. Shin-chan, Takao-san, take care of the mansion while I'm gone! Oh, and, don't forget to tell Father that I left with this guy, " I waved to Takao-san and and Shin-chan.
" Wait, (f/n). I'm coming with you, nanodayo. It's not like I'll be worried if you are only left alone by Kise, nanodayo! " He turned his face to the side.
" Midorimacchi, are you trying to steal my beloved cousin away from me? " Ryo-kun pouted.
" You're annoying, Kise. Now let's get going nanodayo. " Shin-chan urged the two of us.
" Alright then, to the city!!! " Ryo-kun exclaimed as he dragged me and Shin-chan behind him.

Later, at the city, Heian-kyo.
" Kyaaaa!! It's Oikawa-sama and Kise-sama!!! " The city girls squealed as we passed by them.
" This is why I hate going out with popular people, nanodayo. " Shin-chan grumbled in the background.
" Sorry everyone, today, I'll have Kise-dono accompany you. I have some unfinishes business with some of my patients. Then, I'll be going ahead, " I contacted Shin-chan using my eyes, signaling him to follow me.
" Hey, don't leave me alone-ssu! " Ryo-kun yelped from afar, surrounded by his 'fangirls'.
' Sorry, Ryo-kun... You'll have to keep them busy for now. ' I apologetically smiled at hin before disappearing into the crowd with Shin-chan.

In the afternoon, I managed to visit one last patient, after exorcising some yokai at several houses (but mostly, it was Shin-chan who did it. I was the one assisting him by protecting the people while he performs onmyo jutsu.)
" There you go, that should be it. Can you move your legs now? " I asked the boy lying on the bed. His foot was twisted a few days ago, and he was unable to walk properly.
" I'll... try to... " He slowly mumbled and rose up from the bed.
And the result was a complete success. The boy managed to walk like normal again. He then ran to me in full speed and hugged me.
" Thanks a bunch, onii-chan[1]! " He said in an excited tone.
" Haha, you're welcome anytime, " I pat his back.
I could see Shin-chan's brow twitching as a few nerves popped up on his forehead.
" Now then, since I'm done with my tasks, I'll be going back. Let's go, Shintaro-san, " I called his name.
" Thank you very much, Oikawa-kun. You're a lot of help for us peasants. " The boy's father thanked me.
" No, it's in my nature to help someone sick. After all, that is the reason why I chose to become a doctor. " I smiled.
" Once again, thank you very much, we are very indebted to you, " The father's boy bowed to us and sent us off from their house.
" It's pretty nice becoming a doctor, don't you think so, Shin-chan? " I asked him.
" I don't know, (f/n). From my guess, this is probably just a method for you to get rid of your boredom in the mansion, nanodayo. " He replied with a straight face.
" Hm... Maybe you could interpret it in that way, but anyway, it's getting dark, we need to go back soon. " I jokingly punched him on his arm.
" You're right, nanodayo. But, I have a feeling that we forgot about something, nanodayo. Don't you think so, (f/n)? " Right before I was able to answer, a hand covered my mouth, and I was pulled away by a pair of strong arms.
